I had a strange glitch recently where upgrading the nvidia drivers failed to |
| 32 |
create one important symlink. I think it was this one but I can't promise: |
| 33 |
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so -> ../../../opengl/nvidia/extensions/libglx.so.173.14.28 |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I use 260.19.12 on my newer machine, so the glitch may have happened on that |
| 36 |
machine instead of this one. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
IIRC I fixed it my creating the symlink by hand. I haven't used eselect since |
| 39 |
then to find out if my fix is permanent, though. |
